Waited 10 days for delivery slot and they cancelled that on the day!

Waited 10 days for delivery slot. The delivery company then cancelled delivery at last minute without notice. Took 3 phone calls chasing HoL for update before getting the delivery company to rearrange the delivery. Awful customer service.

Hi Alex,

We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration this has caused. Waiting for a delivery slot, only for it to be cancelled at short notice, is understandably disappointing.

We also apologise for the difficulty you had in getting an update and for the need to chase multiple times—this is not the level of service we aim to provide.

We will be raising this with our delivery partner to understand what went wrong and help prevent this from happening again.

If there is anything further we can assist with, please do contact us directly with your order details and we will be happy to help.

Pleased with this company - would use again

I’m so pleased with this company. Even though a glass shade was damaged during transit, their customer service team turned a problem into a great experience.

They were quick to reply and sorted out my refund right away. I love the lampshades I kept and really appreciate the support!

Outstanding design shop

Outstanding design shop. I purchased a set of salt and pepper grinders and I absolutely adore them. I went back to buy a beautiful, unique fruit tray and tala lamps. There are some truly great heirloom pieces here.
